If it’s May it must be the Indianapolis 500 and we take an in depth look at the race from the earliest event in 1911 right up to the present day. We also talk to Guy Loveridge about 1950s Grand Prix driver Peter Collins who, with his American wife Louise, were the glamour couple of the race circuits of the world. When he won the British Grand Prix at Silverstone in 1958 in a works Ferrari he had the world at his feet but three weeks later, he was killed in an accident at the Nurburgring Nordschleife during the German Grand Prix. We hear all about Peter and Louise and their life together.

Eddie Jordan has been labelled as a ‘maverick’ and a ‘showman’ but behind all the brouhaha was a very astute businessman who loved his racing.

We take a look at the ‘man behind the mask’ in our tribute to Eddie who died last month. We also look at EJ the racing driver and also what happened to the team after he sold it on.

Goodwood Members Meeting takes place later in April and we highlight some of the things to look out for.

Jim Roller has taken in some Florida sunshine as he visits Brian Redman’s Targa 66. He talks to Bill Auberlen, Scott George and Brad Kettler about this unique event and the cars they run there. Paul Tarsey and Paul Jurd discuss the success of Race Retro and Simon Owen from Scalextric talks to Joe Bradley about the new season’s cars from the world’s leading slot car manufacturer.

Motorsport legend Brian Redman talks to Jim Roller and previews the 2025 edition of his ‘Targa 66’. Paul Jurd looks back to the first-ever Daytona 500, which was more dramatic than any Hollywood movie could have come up with and Paul Tarsey leads a somewhat off-the-wall discussion about the Ecclestone Collection.

Joe Hale, President of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum, tells Jim Roller about the sale of some vehicles from the museum’s collection. The first car to go under the hammer will be the ex-Fangio and ex-Moss Mercedes W196 Streamliner with an expected sale of $50 Million!

Paul Jurd reviews the career of Giancarlo Baghetti who won his first-ever Grand Prix, and asks why the comparative unknown got a factory Ferrari drive.

We complete our conversation with Derek Warwick. We talk more about his Formula One career and his stellar sportscar drives which brought him a World Championship and a win at Le Mans.

Regular contributor Les Thacker tells us about Derek’s early days in the Toleman Formula Two team which led to the amazing exploits in Grand Prix racing, all under Les’s BP Motorsport banner.

We also hear from John Mayhead who talks about ‘Goldie’ Gardener who was perhaps the least known, but in some ways the most successful record breakers of the ’30s 40s and who was still breaking LSRs in the 1960s.

Derek Warwick remembers his times in the junior formulae, also as a Le Mans winner and right up to date as a Driver Steward at Formula One races around the world. Goodwood TT winner, Mike Whitaker, gives Paul Jurd the lowdown on seven years of trying to get his TVR onto the top of the charts and Bob Evans recalls his career which saw him driving in Formula One for BRM and Lotus. His views on some of the 1970s team managers is worth a listen on its own!

Paul Tarsey talks to one of the greatest racing drivers of all time, Sir Jackie Stewart about racing, both now and then. Jim Roller hears from George Levy about his book about Jim Hall and his Chaparal cars and Nick Whale brings interesting thoughts on the current auction scene.

It is a bit of a different show this time around. Our broadcast colleague and producer Jim Roller is marooned in the basement of his home in North Carolina dealing with the recent devastation caused by Storm Helene. Consequently we are unable to bring you the intended podcast but instead Paul Jurd and Paul Tarsey sat down and reminisced about the racetracks of the UK mainland. Amongst their memories, Tarsey remembers his first ever motor sport outing to see the Silver Arrows demonstrated by Peter Collins and Tony Brooks at Oulton Park and PJ recalls Thruxton in the 1960s.

Motorsport legend Dick Bennetts talks about everything from being Ayrton Senna’s team owner before the Brazilian superstar got to Formula One to running Nigel Mansell in a Ford Mondeo. Derek Drinkwater met up with Jim Roller at Watkins Glen and they talked about Derek’s epic coast-to-coast-and-back-again trip across the USA in his Cadillac Le Monstre, and Joe Bradley investigates the best and worst books about Ayrton Senna.
